Experienced architect with a keen eye for design and practicality! With a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Architecture, as well as site experience working with general contractors, I bring a unique perspective to the table. Working closely with GCs has given me insight into how they approach projects, allowing me to deliver designs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical and feasible. I'm skilled in using software like MS Project, Bluebeam, Procore, AutoCAD, Photoshop, SketchUp, and Revit to create architectural models and manage projects with ease. As a professional with over 10 years of experience managing construction teams, drafting architectural documents, and designing interiors and exteriors for high visibility projects, I'm excited to collaborate with you to bring your vision to life.
